Which one of those is your father?

[chequita guevara]

My dad is 1/2 Italian, and a melange of English, Welsh, German, French, and maybe some Scots. We're typical American mutts.

My ancestors all came over before WWI, though I imagine that my Italian family may well have been fascisti had they stayed. Apparently my great-great-grandfather served in the Italian cavalry and killed Southern Italian peasants.

My German great-great-grandfather was sent a letter from Kaiser Wilhelm II himself asking him to return to Germany to fight in the Great War. Aside from the fact that he was an old man by that point, he was a rather patriotic American, so instead he burned the letter (for fear of being considered a traitor if it was discovered). Woulda been nice as a family heirloom.

My mom's family is a mix of Saxon and German, shaken (not stirred)

My dad is Dutch marinated in a port wine drizzled with a bit of alcoholism and comes with a large side of sarcasm

che, cool stories. I wish I knew my family stories better.. My dad doesn't tell me anything and my mom doesn't know anything.

[Az]

I have no idea.

[Bereta_Eder]

i have a ****load of stories from my families they include running away and getting married, rapture of social casts, disinheritence, embezzelment, stealing of family property, travel, travel travel, lots of war stories, struggles but also huge parties and fun etc.. somehow we always end with the short stick though. always the w@nkers money wise at least.

[Pekka]

Az, this way it's cool. You can make it up yourself. Let's say .. your father was a hardcore supercommando for the .. Hannibal, and he personally sliced a big wound to Alexander the Great. It was the Kalenputh Secret Society that erased this information, in order to glorify Alexander. But he was definitely hardcore and could throw knives like a superhero. He learned this trade from his dad, and it goes all the way back to ,,, human existence. All of them. Supercommandos.

etc. Is this a good one or would you like another history? We can make him famous writer, , musician, what ever.
